Have you ever seen sunshine flowing through a prism
It begins as one pure light, totally without schism
As it flows, the colour grows
And becomes a rainbow, shining risen

Have you ever seen Sunshine's write flow across a page
It contains elements of might, small elements of rage
In her word, a song is heard
And colours print is Sunshine's wage

Have you seen the pure encouragement, she gives to everyone
Her sunshine ever present, as she faces down the sun
Her rainbow light, ever bright
And crystal facets show her sense of fun

Have you ever seen the way her poetry, brings pure light
The way her true discernment, can wash away the night
Her colour shows, as light bestows
And light becomes much more than white

Have you observed the way that Sunshine takes a stand
Using every tool, she has, at her rainbow command
How she stands strong, to right the wrong
How her light by passion's fanned

Have you felt the light and warmth she scatters on the way
A gift of light and sunshine through every living day
A prism deep, to promise keep
With crystal facets Sunshine's play

Yes she does have a way of promising rainbows and then delivering them with the warmth of her name.  Beautiful write my friend and so like her indeed.

A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses.

Kethry love, this is so her, utterly perfectly reflected, and beautifully sketched. You have a brilliant gift for this photography of your pen love. Wonderful work, for a wonderful heart by a beautiful spirit.
Take care love

Kethry, I have not done
anything under this sun
that other poets haven't done

that you post this for me today
causes blushing cheeks to ray
forth the light today

so whatever I may have done
that you have so blessed this sun
know that I am simply "undone..."

and hug you all the way...

thank you!

Mark,
yes she is all that and more.

Spitfire,
if I've written a treasure it's because Karilea is pure gold, don't ya think.

Sven,
so glad you can see it too, I knew you'd get it you always do.  

Marsha, glad you can see the picture, it's probably good that I can make word photographs because my real life photographs are are guessing game as to their identity, no heads, fuzzy etc. *laughs*

JM,
thanks for quoting me back it always sounds better when someone else says it.If I am the poet queen you must be the poet emperor.  

Charisma,
did you have a good break, your comments are always welcome thanks

Sunshine, thanks for the poem response. I only wrote this because you are up there with the other poets that only do what they are able... that is reach out to others in their poetry... and do it all excellently.

Live long, belong
Kethry
